Ingredients
Scale
Produce
- 2 pounds Mango
- 1 1/4 cup Onion, diced
- 1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, diced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger, grated
Pantry & Spices
- 1 1/2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- 1/2 cup Pineapple Juice
- 1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoon Sweet Curry Powder
- To taste Kosher Salt
- To taste Ground White Pepper
- 1/4 cup Golden Raisins
Nuts
- 1/4 cup Macadamia Nuts
Instructions
- Toast and Prepare Ingredients: Toast the macadamia nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly browned and fragrant, then roughly chop them. Dice the onions and red bell pepper. Grate the fresh ginger and peel the mangoes carefully.
- Prepare Mango Flesh: Using a sharp knife, slice the mango vertically on either side of the large pit to create two thick slices. Score the flesh in a diamond pattern and push the skin outward to expose the mango cubes. Slice the mango flesh away from the skin.
- Sauté Aromatics: Heat vegetable oil and crushed red pepper flakes in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until soft and translucent. Add grated ginger and red bell pepper, cooking for 1 to 2 minutes to release their flavors. Add the mango pieces and sauté for an additional minute.
- Add Liquids and Simmer: In a small bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and sweet curry powder. Pour this mixture into the pan with the mango and vegetables. Stir well to combine, then bring to a gentle simmer. Let the chutney cook undisturbed, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes to thicken and develop flavor.
- Season and Finish: Season the chutney with kosher salt and ground white pepper to taste. Stir in the golden raisins and toasted macadamia nuts. Allow to warm through for a few minutes before removing from heat. Serve the chutney warm or at room temperature to complement a variety of dishes.
Notes
- For added texture, adjust the cooking time to keep some mango pieces slightly firmer.
- This chutney pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, seafood, or sharp cheeses.
- Store leftover chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Toasting the nuts enhances their flavor and adds a lovely crunch contrast to the soft chutney.
- If you prefer less spice, reduce or omit the crushed red pepper flakes.
